Missing "TV Shows" menu option

I have two purchased TV shows in my Itunes video library under "tv shows". At first I was able to find and play them just fine on the Ipod. I tried to transfer what may have been an incompatable video file into the Itunes library and since then after multiple synchings with my 5th gen 30gb Ipod, the "TV Shows" option does not appear under the "Videos" menu. I can play them fine in Itunes but they are not on the Ipod. The whole category seems to have vanished. Any thoughts?

Hi Don,
It would appear that Apple are doing some work on their servers at the moment which is causing the "Movies" and "TV Shows" icons to keep dissappearing.
No one seems to know how much longer this will be going on for - as its been an issue since about lunch time today.
My suggestion woudl be to keep checking back on your ATV to see when the icons re-appear and try again.
Obviously keep an eye on these forums too for any further updates that might get posted.

Missing "TV Shows" menu items lists

I have a first gen apple TV, software is up to date.
Today I look at the "TV Shows" menu, and everything except "My TV shows" is missing from the menu selection.
I've looked around the support communities and I've seen a few other threads, but no resolutions. Thus I'm starting a new thread on the topic.
I've rebooted AppleTV, have confirmed my location settings (I'm in Canada), so-on-and-so-forth.
Does anyone know what's going on? With the exception of these missing menu items my AppleTV is fully functional.

This problem has just resolved itself. You can read more about it in the
Apple TV 1 not showing TV show items thread. However, you need to reboot your Apple TV for the menu to reappear. Just press and hold "Menu" plus "-" on the remote until it disappears from your TV screem amd then follow the instructions when it starts up again.

Cover flow missing as a menu option on ipod classic

Any ideas - no idea why but I can no longer see cover flow as menu option on our ipod classic. I have reset/updated software/ synced against playlist from other ipod which works but still no success.
The album art is on the ipod as I can see it when viewing individual albums!

actually, once you do a workout with the reciever attached, it will show up all the time, so that you can access your data....until it has data to report to you though, it doesn't show up, even when you turn it on in the menus....go for a run and it'll stay on the menu after that....

Apple TV Menu missing TV Shows & Music options

Just set up my new Apple TV which I'm using in conjunction with OSX 10.6.8 / iTunes 10.5, and the menu screen only shows the Movie, Internet, Computers & Settings options, no sign of TV Shows or Music. I have Home Sharing selected in iTunes and can stream music and video from both my Mac and iPhone, but can't seem to access my library from the Apple TV menu. Why? Thanks.

Like DougMcLean, same thing happened to me. With every other version of iOS in my AppleTV 2, I had YouTube, Radio etc items in the menu. Now after updating to the latest version everything is gone except for Computers and Settings. FYI, I am in Malaysia where the AppleTV is not sold. I got mine in Oz.
I tried Settings to see if this is simply a setup issue, but there is nothing that I can see that relates to this problem.
I have not tried studiogalatea's solution. By pulling the plug, do you mean that I simply remove power?
Still I wonder what Apple is doing? Even if I am not able to buy movies in Malaysia (I guess its because of IP rights and piracy) I don't see why Apple has to cripple the device and only allow me to share my computer's content and nothing else! This is quite ridiculous. I can view anything on YouTube, Internet Radio etc on my computer anyway, since these sites do not prevent anyone in the world from viewing. So has Apple become everyone's conscience?

"This window only" option missing from Show View Options

Hi,
When trying to create a background image for a disk image for distribution, the radio button for "This window only" is missing. I read instructions on the web on how to set the background image, make the file invisible in the Terminal. It will work on the 10.6 system that created it, but will not show on another computer. (Mac OS does not matter)
I eventually had to do this on an old system with Tiger 10.4 . There when looking at View Options, the radio button is there labeled 'This window only' . I created the disk image and voila' it will keep the background image for any other computer.
So my question is - Is there a keyboard combination to set this? This option is missing in 10.5 and 10.6 . This is really frustrating.
TIA

I'm experiencing the same problem. However, I don't think it's defaulting to an arbitrary colour. Rather, it seems to be defaulting to the exact opposite colour (than whatever colour was selected) in the spectrum.
For example, if I set the background colour of a folder to red, it instead defaults to green (and vice versa). This is consistent for all opposing colours.
I hadn't clued into Crayons being different — thanks!

IPod no longer has TV Shows menu option

Hi!
I restored my iPod recently, and now I have no TV shows!!! The shows are on my iTunes, but not on my actual iPod. What do I do???????
Thanks, Dana

Check your iPod settings when you plug in your iPod. Make sure that TV shows are still set to sync. Maybe it got unchecked when restored.

Movies and TV Shows Missing form iPod menu -- what's up with that?

I purchased my fist movie and TV episode last night to see how well I will like them on my iPod classic. I am connecting to the most up to date version of iTunes on my IBM/Win XP computer.
I watched the episode (Journeyman's first episode -- missed it on Monday...it's not bad) and was pleased. Then watched Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy -- also enjoyable even at the small size (especially the opening sequence which emulates "home movie" style in a very small frame).
Near the end of the movie, my iPod battery was giving up the ghost, so I paused the movie and plugged in. After waiting out the "Do not disconnect..." syncing process the main menu finally appeared on the iPod -- but the Movie and TV Shows selections were conspicuously missing from the menu! I have not seen my Movie/TV episode since.
They are in the iTunes library, obviously, but they simply never show up in the iPod menu. So far I have sync'd a number of times -- the sync settings were originally set by default to sync all songs, podcasts, TV Shows, Movies, Songs, etc... I tried "tweaking" these but to no avail. All syncs result in no Movie or TV Shows on the iPod menu.
Most recently I tried deleting all material from the iPod and then re-syncing all material back to the iPod (no help) and lastly I tried resetting to factory default settings (which originally seemed to work just fine) still to no avail.
When I select Settings >> Main Menu ... from the iPod main menu, the configuration screen also does not contain options for Movies or TV Shows.
It all makes me say "Hmmmm...." and leaves me reluctant to waste money on video media (though thank god my Tiki TV podcasts are still coming through just fine ... no Lala? I don't think so!). Nope, check that! video podcasts are not coming through either. GEEZE!
Has anyone experienced this before? Again, I've updated all iPod and iTunes software. Nothing "funky" seemed to happen to cause the problem, other than it conincided with plugging my iPod in (which kicks off the blasted sync process -- geeze these settings are a pain...I'd prefer the blasted thing to just sync on demand) >:-( Any help/suggestions would be most appreciated. Without a solution, I'll never be able to keep up with Journeyman!
Thanks

No, once a user has been created, you can't run Setup Assistant (without erasing and reinstalling).
What do you recommend for fixing this?
Here's what's happened:
When you first start up a Mac and create the first user account, OSX assigns it UID (User ID) #501. The next one gets #502, etc. Those UIDs (not the user name) are what control permission to files.
You can see those numbers via System Prefs > Users & Groups; click the padlock and enter your Admin password, then select an account and right-click it, and select Advanced Options. Do not change anything on that window.
So . . . assume your old iMac had a user 501 with the data you want; it's identified that way on the backups.
When the Apple Store started up your new Mac, and created their account, it became #501.
When you used Migration Assistant to transfer the 501 account from the iMac's backups, OSX copied everything there "as is" except it had to change the 501 to 502.
The new 502 account has all the right permissions to things now in it's home folder, but the backups belong to user 501.
Have you added much to the Mac since you did the migration? Have you done any new backups? If not, while it's a bit of a hassle, one fix would be to create yet another user account temporarily. Make it an Admin account. Log on to it and delete all the other accounts. Then migrate the accounts from your backups; this time there won't be a conflict, so OSX won't have to change the UUID(s).
But if you have done new backups, this won't work, since Migration Assistant automatically uses the most recent backup. There's a way around that, but it's a bit (or more) tedious.

Menu options not showing up in Color

The menu options, such as save and reconform, are not showing up in Color. They appear grey and I cannot click them. I have clicked out of my clips, what could I be missing? I am relatively new to Color.

Do you have a project open in Color? Did you "Send to" from FCP?

SRP521W Administration - Missing Menu Options.

Hi
Second post, I have a new SRP 527W, I've run through the initial config and am looking at the features available, in comparison the the PDF Admin Guide I seem to have a number of options missing from the menu.
My router only shows Time setup & Switch setting, these look like the top and bottom items ... so I'm missing around 10 items ... including the ability to upgrade the firmware.
According to te status page my router has "1.01.09 (001) Apr 7 2010".
Help much appreciated.
Gary

Hello Rogelio,
I too was mystified by missing menu items - specifically looking for Logging setup.
I was using the cisco logon and as you say this brings up the quick interface.
My problem is that the admin/admin is not accepted ie is being rejected as Invalid User Name or Password.
The 527W was purchased through Telstra in Australia and was delivered with Firmware 1.0.17 (VP002) Oct 8 2010 - this is also a mystery as there does not seem to be any reference to this firmware level anywhere.
Your help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Charles Rudder
P.S. Found a hint in another post that admin/admin only works on initial access after the 527W is reset to Factory Defaults. This worked! Quite a strange way of doing things....
I am still curious about the Firmware level.

RDS Dataview menu option missing

In Coldfusion Builder 2, under the menu Window->Show View, the option for RDS Dataview is missing. The knock on effect is that I can't run any extensions for generating code from database tables becauase I can't browse the datasources. This option was available a couple of days ago. It is also missing from the Other... dialog.
Screenshot
Has anybody else encountered this problem? Does anyone know of a solution? Thanks in advance (PS how come, when using the rich text editor to enter this question, whenever I press return, a new line is added above the current paragraph?)

I have found the solution...
Under Window->Customize perspective...
Select the Menu Visibility tab
Expand the Window node
Expand the Show View node
and there, towards the bottom, is the RDS Dataview menu option, which just needs to be checked.
Of course, this doesn't explain why it went missing in the first place
Hope this helps someone else

20.0.1 Update: right-click on page shows ALL menu options, many (all?) don't work, no "view page source", no "open in new tab"

after update to 20.0.1 a few hours ago, right click shows ALL menu options, many (all?) don't work, like "view page source", "open in new tab" etc. etc.

I'm having the same issue on Firebug 1.11.3....The "more robust" right click menu does return when I disable the extension. Would you recommend downgrading Firebug to 1.11.2? Hate to have to turn off Firebug "except when I'm working" but either option seems to have both pros/cons.
This behavior happens on both PC and Mac (although the above information was tested on my PC - I'll have to check the Mac later and see if Firebug is doing the same thing there. I believe I have the most recent Firebug there, too)
The PC is on Firefox 20.0.1, Mac should be as well.
Thanks

TOOLS menu option missing from Adobe X Standard docs when opened in IE10

Hi,
A few of our users are having issues where any Adobe X document they open in Internet Explorer is missing the Tools menu bar on the top right of the document.
If they open the document in Adobe directly, the Tools menu appears.
It's only when opening in IE that the problem occurs.
Enable third-party applications is checked in Internet Options > Advanced.
I don't have this on my machine - IE displays the Tools menu correctly - so I can only assume it's a plug-in or a setting I'm missing on the users' machines.
Any ideas?
Cheers!

Slightly confused - why wouldn't it be available? Is it a limitation of the browser being unable to activate the plug-ins which are part of Adobe Acrobat X Standard? It's just functionality for altering the layouts of PDFs, page numbering, etc. Should be fairly standard?
Tools menu when opened directly in Adobe:
No Tools menu when opening in browser:
